The Demon Emperor was furious when he saw this: "A bunch of idiots, you wouldn't understand even if I explained. Next time you see that little girl, just take action."
"Yes!" the demon kings quickly replied.
"From this day forward, you shall take human form and travel throughout the Great Yan Dynasty to help this Emperor find someone!" The Demon Emperor stood up and said coldly.
"Whom does Your Majesty wish to seek?" the White Ape Demon King asked hastily.
If they can perform meritorious service, they can receive benefits from the Emperor and improve their cultivation.
"That person was reincarnated eighteen years ago and is nineteen years old this year. According to the clues I received, he was born with a supreme treasure. After he turns eighteen, the seal on the treasure will slowly open, and he will be extraordinary, with a body like that of a god or demon, even stronger than our demon race."
The Demon Emperor paused slightly at this point: "You only need to find a young person who is stronger than the demon race, whose recovery ability is no stronger than that of the demon race, and whose strength is exceptionally terrifying even though they have not cultivated the Dao."
The demon kings nodded hurriedly.
Fearing they might misunderstand, the Demon Emperor added, "His current strength should be comparable to that of a great demon. Once we find him, we must kill him at all costs."
Although these demon kings were powerful and each had cultivated for over a thousand years, in the eyes of the demon emperor, they were not very bright.
In short, it dislikes it!
But it cannot leave the forbidden land now, lest it attract divine calamity.
Heaven forbids mortals from ascending to immortality, yet its power has reached a critical point.
It didn't want to end up like the former sect leader of Taiyi Sect, who survived all the tribulations but was unable to ascend and could only cower in this world, his strength greatly diminished.
The White Ape Demon King couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, you said that person was reincarnated with a supreme treasure, could it be that he..."
It didn't dare to continue speaking, but just looked up at the sky.
"Regardless of who he is, my decree is—kill him." The Demon Emperor's expression was somewhat grim: "You only need to obey!"
"Yes!" The White Ape Demon King dared not say anything more and quickly nodded.
"There are some things you don't need to know too much about, but... don't be fooled by that little girl surnamed Ye again. She doesn't have the ability to restart the path to ascension. I might as well tell you a secret... whether we can ascend in the future depends on that reincarnated young man. As long as he dies, the Heavenly Dao will naturally reopen the path to ascension!"
The White Ape Demon King and the others were a little confused when they heard this.
The Demon Emperor got angry as soon as he saw their expressions.
"You fools! I shouldn't have told you this secret, yet you've been completely fooled by a little girl." The Demon Emperor sneered, "Now that I've told you, if you fail again, you'll have to offer your heads!"
"But Your Majesty, the Great Yan Dynasty is the territory of the Taiyi Sect. If we take the great demon and transform into human form to travel throughout the Great Yan Dynasty, we might be discovered. And then..."
Before the White Ape Demon King could finish speaking, he was slapped away by the Demon Emperor.
It was badly injured this time, and it couldn't get up for a long time after flying out of the main hall.
"How strong can those people from the Taiyi Sect be? As long as they still dare to walk in this world, instead of hiding in a barrier like me, it proves that they haven't reached their peak of cultivation and their strength is comparable to yours!" The Demon Emperor said with a sneer.
"The Taiyi Sect currently has five Supreme Elders and ten Elders. These old fellows are just as strong as you, so you have nothing to fear." The Demon Emperor said nonchalantly, "In terms of numbers, they have more than you, but... isn't this Emperor here? If you encounter a life-or-death crisis, just crush this jade talisman."
As soon as it finished speaking, ten jade talismans flew out from the Qiankun bag it carried with it.
Four more demon kings entered from outside, along with the White Ape Demon King and the others from before, each carrying a jade talisman.
"I, the Emperor, can temporarily suppress some of my strength and leave the barrier to save you. I won't let you live or die, so go all out!" the Demon Emperor said confidently.
If it suppresses its strength and leaves this barrier, it will be discovered by the Heavenly Dao in no more than half an hour.
But it's alright.
That amount of time was enough for it to reach any place in this world.
The Demon Emperor didn't want to do this unless absolutely necessary. What if... Heaven discovered it beforehand? Wouldn't it be struck by lightning?
Even if it survives the tribulation now, it won't be able to ascend!
Therefore, although it gave these demon kings jade tokens, it may not necessarily go to rescue them.
However, I need to reassure them, otherwise these fools won't do their best to get things done.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The White Ape Demon King and the others accepted the jade tokens and said respectfully.
"Get lost!" The Demon Emperor waved his hand impatiently.
Just as the White Ape Demon King and his companions were about to leave, the Demon Emperor's voice rang in their ears again: "Wait!"
The demon kings immediately stopped in their tracks.
"We must find that person this year. He possesses a priceless treasure, and his strength is increasing rapidly. If you don't find him this year, he will be stronger than you next year, and you will be powerless against him. In two more years... even I will not be his match!"
The Demon Emperor frowned deeply as he said this: "According to the information I have received, given just a few years, he can ascend directly, and even the Heavenly Dao cannot stop him!"
After hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the White Ape Demon King and the others became even more certain that the young man the Demon Emperor was looking for was no ordinary person. He might be a reincarnation of a deity from above, and his identity was extraordinary.
If they were to kill that person while they were still weak, wouldn't that cause a lot of trouble?
The demon kings were somewhat afraid, but they dared not disobey the demon emperor.
After leaving the forbidden land and returning to their territory, the White Ape Demon King said, "Second brother, third sister, we must be careful. Who knows if someone from above will come? If we kill that person, we may face great disaster!"
"Boss, in my opinion... even if we find him, we shouldn't kill him!" Tengshe Demon King hurriedly said.
“Not bad!” The Azure Scale Demon King nodded: “If we find that person, we will crush the jade talisman and let the Demon Emperor come and take the person away himself.”
Cultivation is not easy, and these ancient demons, who have lived for thousands of years, cherish their lives even more.
The three demon kings quickly reached a consensus, left their lair, and, along with the powerful demons around them, all transformed into human form and headed towards the Great Yan Dynasty.
The Great Yan Dynasty had many Taoist priests, who, although no match for these demon races, were able to sense demonic energy.
To conceal their whereabouts, the demon kings and great demons dared not fly, but instead disguised themselves as ordinary people, obtaining legitimate identities and travel permits to travel throughout the Great Yan Dynasty.
The Great Yan Dynasty has many provinces, and each demon king is responsible for two or three provinces, searching for powerful young people.
They dare not set foot in the capital city.
